INTRODUCTION

In presenting the 1934 Year Book
to our readers we are again reminded
that in our church activities we have
passed another milestone. As the years
come and go we are impressed with
the fact that we have one year less to
serve and are one year nearer the end
of our earth life and the coming of
our Lord, when we must render an
account: of our stewardship. °

One of the purposes of the Year
Book is to give an account of the work
that was done by our various organ-
ized church activities during the year
that is past. Hence we find in it not
only articles representing these ac-
tivities but statistics concerning the
various conferences, boards, and gen-
eral committees. We shall call atten-
tion to a few outstanding items. The
total membership of our branch of the
Mennonite Church is now, as listed on
page 76, 51,308, a gain over last year
of 1,512 members. This is the first time
in the history of the Mennonite Church
in America that our number has gone
over the 50,000 mark. The member-
ship in the United ‘States is 45,071, an
increase of 1,353 over last year’s re-
port. We are encouraged to know that
we are still a growing organization,
even though we are a small body. May
we grow Spiritually as well as numer-
ically.

A glance at the Sunday school sta-
tistics on page 36 shows that 482 Sun-
day schools are listed, with an enroll-
ment of 69,038. This is an increase in
enrollment over last year of 4,545. This
year 5521 teachers are listed, an in-
crease of 300 over last year. The num-
ber of officers listed this year is 1743.
Our army of Sunday school pupils and
workers is constantly on the increase,
for which we praise the Lord.

The contributions for mission pur-
poses have again fallen off during the
past year. The total as given on page
7 is $164,256.10, a decrease of $28,237.

3

98 from the amount contributed in 1932.
This shows that the effects of the pro-
longed financial depression are still be-
ing felt quite decidedly in the offerings
for missions. We trust that next year
will show an increase.

The Grim Reaper has taken quite a
toll among the ordained men of the
Church, as will be seen in the Sum-
mary of Events for 1933. Twenty-four
of our church leaders answered the last
call during the past year. But we are
comforted by the assurance that those
who lay down their armor here con-
tinue their service with the redeemed
over yonder. We are glad to note also
that as the ranks are depleted other
men are ordained to take their places.
There were forty-two ordinations last
year. May these newly called workers
be faithful to their sacred trust and lead
the Church to higher ground spiritual-
ly and be instruments in God’s hands
to extend her borders still farther into
unoccupied territory.

Another outstanding event is found
in the preparations to begin mission
work in Africa. Two brethren have
been ordained for this work, and at this
writing Bros. Elam Stauffer and- Orie
O. Miller are in the Dark Continent
looking for a place to locate the pro-
spective African Mennonite Mission.
May the Lord lead. very definitely in
this great undertaking.

The past year is gone. We cannot
change the work that has. been done.
The opportunities that came to us then
will never come again. From _ the
Church angle much work has beea
done, but, after all, probably, there is
much more that we might have done
had we been more faithful and dili-
gent. May we yield our lives com-
pletely to Him so that He may lead
us to His glory and make us a bless-

-ing in the work of His kingdom dur-

ing 1934,

4 MENNONITE YEAR-BOOK

MISSION ACTIVITIES FOR 1933

By S. C. Yoder, Secretary of the Men-
nonite Board of Missions and
Charities ae

The year 1933 is past. Its record
has become a matter of history. The
New Year stretches out before us and
offers us all its splendid opportunities
for service in the vineyard of the
Iuard. -Tt-is’ not out of place; then, to
take an inventory of the past in order
that we may profit by our experience
and plan wisely for the future. As we
review the past year we find much
that is encouraging and helpful in
spite of the difficulties that were en-
countered all along the way.

From both India and South Amer-
ica there come encouraging reports of
eagerness for the Word and the ac-
ceptance of the Gospel by many souls.
The South American Mission shows
a gain of more than thirty-six per
cent in membership during the last
year. This is very encouraging and in-
dicates that in spite of conditions that
generally discourage people, great
things can be done for God when
Christians put their trust and con-
fidence in Him.

In India we now have eight organ-
ized congregations with 1,360 mem-
bers. Besides this, the report shows
that there are twenty stations and out-
stations, twenty-two station Sunday
schools and fifty-nine village Sunday
schools with an average attendance of
2,688 pupils each Sunday. There is al-
so the Girls’ Boarding School, the
Boys’ Orphanage, the Widows’ Home,
the Leper Asylum, and the Old Men’s
Home. In the way ‘of schools there
is the Carpentry School, the Christian
Academy and Bible School, the Girls’
Middle School, Girls’ Industrial School,
four station primary schools, and five
village primary schools. Besides the
above institutions there is the Hospital
and a number of dispensaries.

At the close of the year there were
on the Indian field twenty-four mis-
sionaries, ten at home on furlough,
and two under appointment. In ad-

dition to our own missionaries we have
twenty-five native evangelists and thir-
ty-one native Bible women. Last year
these native workers held 13,2/8 meet-
ings, which averaged an attendance of
twenty, consequently these natives
taught the Scriptures or preached to
265,560 people during their ministry.
Time alone can tell what the fruits of
this work will be.

The South American work of our
Church is only about half as old as
that of India. On account of the con-
dition of the country the work is di-
rected along somewhat different lines
than that of India. There are now
fourteen organized congregations in
charge of the missionary or native
pastors, with a total membership of
375. In addition to this there are five
outstations that are being served by
the pastors of the regular stations or
churches. The report shows eighteen
organized Sunday schools with an
average attendance of 654. Last year
there were employed nine native Bibie
Readers who made a total of 3,892
visits and spoke to 6,665 people. There
is also a kindergarten in which there
are enrolled 203 children and a pri-
mary school with an enrollment of fif-
ty-four. Owing to Bro. Nelson Lit-
willer’s absence from the field the Bi-
ble School was discontinued for the
year.

The Mennonite Printery in Argen-
tina has proven a very helpful factor
in evangelization. During the year °
180,000 copies of El Camino Verdadero
(The True Way) were printed. This
is an average of 15,000 per month.

‘Ninety-three thousand copies were dis-

tributed in our own district and 87,-
000 were sent to other denominations
who paid for same. La Voz Mennon-
ita (The Mennonite Voice) is the
name of the new Church periodical.
It is hoped that it will become to the

Argentine Church what the Gospel
Herald is to the Church in North
America. Some over three hundred

copies are printed each issue. Besides
the above periodicals there are print-
ed each year thousands of tracts,

AND: DIRECTORY: * ie

handbills, and other material for use of
the missionaries.

The Orphanage is still without a
home. It was hoped that a new build-
ing might be erected during the year,
but financial conditions made it im-
possible. A small farm and adequate
buildings are greatly needed to take
care of the growing family of orphans,
and it is to be” hoped, that ere- long
conditions may make this possible.

The work in the home field has been
equally encouraging. There are now
nine city missions directly under the
Board. These stations are scattered
from Toronto, Ontario, to Los Angel-
es, California. Last year these mis-
sions enrolled 2112 pupils in Sunday
school and had a total membership of
706. In addition to Sunday school and
church work there is also much work
being done among the young people
during the week in order to provide
wholesome companionship for them
and keep them off the streets. During
the last year there was some effort
made to open a work among the Mex-
ican people who have settled in Chi-
cago. Bro. J. W. Shank directed this
work during his stay in the city.
Since his departure Bro. Nelson Lit-
willer has given his time every other
Sunday to keep this work going.

The Welfare Home at Kansas City
is much in need of enlarged and im-
proved quarters. The workers at that
place have exercised great patience
and endured many inconveniences to
help the children who come under
their care. The matter of rebuilding
the Home cannot be long deferred,
and all who have an interest in that
place should keep this need in mind
when they make disposition of what
the Lord has blessed them with. The
Orphans’ Home at West Liberty, O.,
and the Home for the Aged at Eureka,
Illinois, have been filled to capacity
during the greater part of the year,
and the workers at those places have
done commendable work for the cause.

The Hospital and Sanitarium at La

Junta, Colorado, are in the process of

a reorganization in order to meet the

requirements. of the agencies with
whom we have to do in order to oper-
ate creditably. Sister Selena Gamber,
A. B., R. N:, succeeds Sister Leichty
as Superintendent of Nurses. Sister
Leichty served temporarily the last
few years to help out until some one
else could be secured. Sister Esther
Brenneman is now in New York tak-
ing special work in preparation for her
duties as Supervisor of the Sanitarium
at La Junta. Among the other recent
supervisors and instructors that have
been added to the staff are Mary Hos-
tetter, instructor in Nursing Tech-
nique, and Ada Burkhart, Surgery and
Obstetrics. Dr. Fred Brenneman, who
is under appointment as missionary to
India, has taken up the work as resi-
dent physician until next June, at
which time, if present plans carry, we
will send him to India.

In spite of the very distressing econ-
omic condition there is much about
the work that is encouraging. Mis-
sionaries have cheerfully assumed add-
ed burdens to make a continuation of
the work possible. The Lord has bless-
ed and honored their effort and has
given them souls for their hire. They,
together with all self-sacrificing givers,
are to be commended for the way they
rallied to the cause in’ these times of
emergency.

In conclusion we may well say with
the Great Apostle: “We were troubled
on every side but not distressed, we
were perplexed but not in despair, ...
cast down but not destroyed.” May it
also be said of us that “we always
bear in our bodies the dying of the
Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus
might be made manifest in our body.”
If this is true then our light affliction
which is but for a moment will work
for us a far more exceeding and eter-
nal weight of glory.

Goshen, Ind.

“Tf we have nothing to hold us up
save ourselves, we are easily cast down.
Ii we rest in the certainty of God’s
power and way, we may be shaken,
but never overthrown.”

THE INDIA MISSION

By J. N. Kaufman

The trend of events in 1933 were de-
termined somewhat by circumstances.
Extension in the usual sense of the
term was not possible due to reduced
remittances from the Home Church.
Cuts in our monthly budget of six and
one-fourth per cent and twelve and
one-half percent for the greater part
of the year meant economy in expendi-
ture. Then when the announcement
came in October that for the rest of
the year our budget will be cut 25 per
cent, it meant an immediate readjust-
ment of finances on the field. A spe-
cial meeting of the Managing Com-
mittee was called to prepare an emer-
gency budget on the basis of a twenty-
five per cent cut. Some items in -toto
were temporarily stricken from our
expense account. ‘Conveyance allow-
ances were reduced fifty per cent and
Wwe missionaries are now trying to run
our motor cars on five dollars a
month! At our last annual meeting
the question: “If a heavy budget cut
should become necessary how could it
be handled with the least hindrance
to the work”? engaged our earnest at-

tention. When lack of funds prevent

entering open doors which show them-

—

selves on every hand we feel disap-
pointed enough, but when it is neces-
sary to retrench and close down work
which has been maintained for years
it means more than we can tell. We
believe that the present crisis will
eventually reveal some special riches
of God’s grace which we have not as
yet fathomed.

Despite the above statement in ref-
erence to extension two new buildings
were under construction this year.
One is the Nurse’s Bungalow in con-
nection with the Medical Station. This
is ready to occupy. The other is the
new school building which is to house
the Christian Academy. This building
is not yet completed. Funds for both
these ‘buildings were provided before
the period of depression began in A-
merica.

The three-year experimental period
for the working of the Evangelistic
Samaj terminates this year. The Ad-
visory Committee consisting of mem-
bers appointed by the Mission and by
the Conference had been watching de-
velopments. While there were many
good features in connection with this
organization it was felt that the main
object was not being accomplished.
This committee, therefore, recom-
mended to the Business Meeting that
our present organization for evangel-
istic work ‘be discontinued and a new
arrangement be set up. The recom-
mendation has already been adopted
by the Business Meeting of the mis-
sion and needs to be brought before
the annual Conference for action. The
Conference is almost certain to adopt
the recommendation which follows:

The Evangelistic Samaj was organ-
ized on the present basis with the fol-
lowing object in view:

1. As the effective beginning in the
transfer -of Mission work into Indian
hands.

2. To promote and foster the spirit
of evangelism among the membership
of our local churches.

3. To encourage local contributions
for the work of the evangelism.

The Samaj has functioned for a pe-
riod of nearly three years and there
have been very important gains, chief-
ly in the form of administrative ex-

8 MENNONITE YEAR-BOOK

periences for the members of the
Samaj. The Missionary 'members of
the Samaj have appreciated the help-
ful advice and valuable contributions
made by the Indian members. The
Samaj was able to make notable con-
tributions to the cause of evangelism
such as the institution of Gospel Teams
and in placing the’ responsibility of
Evangelism on the larger local con-
gregations by removing paid evangel-
ists from their respective areas.
While’ we gratefully acknowledge
the above contributions made by the
Samaj, yet it is our considered opin-
ion that the main object of the Samaj
has not been accomplished. We be-

lieve however, that the purpose of the
Samaj as originally stated is sound.

Because of the reasons as given a-
bove, we make the following recom-
mendations:

1. That the Samaj as at present or-
ganized be discontinued.

2. That the local congregations
carrying on evangelistic work in their
respective areas and that the local
panchayats be responsible for organ-
izing this work. The Mission will car-
ry on evangelistic work in accord-
ance with their convenience and op-
portunity.

3. Local panchayats will carry on
the evangelistic work by the advice of
the Ministerial Meeting.

4. All contributions received by the
Samaj from local congregations for
1933 shall be returned to the congre-
gations as received from each.

The balance of the Samaj
shall be returned to the Mission.

If the above is adopted it will mean
that the local congregations will de-
vise ways and means whereby more
voluntary evangelistic work will be
dene within their respective areas
from the angle of the Church. The
Mission will then carry on evangelistic
work farther afield along lines that
are still to be worked out. The whole
aim will be to reach effectively the
lost in our mission field, and win
them for Christ. As the burden for
the lost increases the work will be
more effectively done.

A few years .ago we ‘proposed a
savings plan for our people for the
reason that a number of those receiv-
ing a regular salary are not as provi-
dent as they should be and are not
able to save for a “rainy. day.’;. The
savings plan as then proposed had fea-
tures which were deemed objection-
able, whereupon a modified plan .was
adopted which, while reserving the sav-
ings feature, did away with the ob-
jectionable element. The plan finally
adopted, and which has been in oper-
ation for a year, appears below:

Compulsory Savings Plan

1. We favour instituting a compul-
sory savings plan for all mission em-
ployees.

2. A minimum of one anna per
rupee shall be deducted at the source
and deposited in the Post Office Sav-

~

ings Bank in the name of the deposi-
tor.

_ 3. Deposits on the part of the em-
ployee shall be compulsory for the
duration of active service.

4. Money deposited in the name of

any employee is always considered as
belonging to that person whether dur-
ing service or after dismissal or resig-
nation. :
- 5, Monthly reports shall be made
by the managers and sent by them at
the close of each year to the Treasur-
er of the Mission on a form provided
for the purpose. No salaries are to be
paid to employees until the previous
deposits have been made.

6. Rules for withdrawal:

a. Ordinarily money cannot be
withdrawn from the Savings Bank
while the employee is in active serv-
ice.

b. In special cases, such as pro-
longed illness, serious loss, or worthy
investments, application for withdraw-
al may be considered by the Managing
Committee.

c. Persons who have resigned or
have been dismissed, wishing to be re-
employed, must show their previous
deposits intact before reémployment is
considered.

d. Deposits in excess of the min-
imum compulsory deposits may be
withdrawn at any time upon applica-
tion to the Manager.

e. The Managing Committee of
the Mission will be the body to deal
with all cases of withdrawal of mini-
mum deposits or with matters not oth-
erwise provided for.

The question as to whether or not
it will be possible for missionaries on
the mission field to support themselves
and continue mission work received
its share of attention. On the part of
-some of us at least the wish was fath-
er to the thought and various possibil-
ities came under our purview. Aside
from the remote possibility of farm-
ing (for which considerable capital is
necessary) such a plan for us is prac-
tically out of the question. What we
would be compelled to do, should re-
sources from the Home church be cut
off, is quite unknown to us, but we
are willing to leave it in the hands
of an all-wise God whom we shall
trust to provide for our needs as long
as He desires our services in this land.

LA CARPA EVANGELICA

. MA
EL COCHE BIBLICO

By -i.,.K.. Hershey

La Carpa Evangélica is the Spanish
rendering for Gospel Tent, and El Co-
che Biblico is the term used for Bible
Coach. (“y” equals English “and,” pro-
nounced “ee.’) Doubtless, many at
home do not know that the Lord has
so graciously provided a Gospel Tent
for our Mission. The purpose of this
article is to give a description of the
Tent and the Bible Coach and how
they are used.

_.The Bible Coach

Our Bible Coach is equipped to live
in and is at present the home of the
writer of this article. It has all the con-
veniences of a modern home on a small
scale minus a bathroom, an attic, and
a cellar.

On entering the front and walking
through to the rear, we pass through
the kitchen. On the right is the sink
set on a tank holding about twenty-
five gallons of water with a small
pump. To the left, is the cupboard
with all necessary cooking utensils.
Another step takes us to the stove
which is a small burner placed in a
galvanized box for cooking.

To the right and to the left as we
proceed, are two beds provided with
exceptionally good mattresses at a
height of two feet above the floor. Un-
der these, the bed clothing is kept and
also books, etc. At the rear end of
the coach, to the right and to the left,
are the wardrobes and in the center of
the rear are small bookcases. Here,
too, is our table provided with folding
boards which can be removed when
not in use. The Bible Coach is high
enough to walk in comfortably.

On the outside at the rear end of
the coach, there is a door which can
be opened and let down serving as a
platform for street and open-air serv-
ices. When the door is down, there
may also be seen shelves of Bibles, New

10 MENNONITE YEAR-BOOK

Testaments, Gospels, and portions of
Scriptures that are kept for sale. On
one side of the coach, a sign reads,
“To-night—Gospel Services,’ on the
other side, one reads, “Read the Bible
(an open book sketched) and you will
know the truth.”
The Tent

The tent is oval-shaped, 26 x 40 feet,
and is equipped with twenty-four seats.
The iron feet are of our own inven-
tion that can be removed and folded
together so as to occupy small space
when the tent is moved from one place
to another. Boards for the platform
are usually borrowed in the town
where we have the meetings. The pul-
pit is made of kerosene boxes, In the
towns where there is no electricity,
lamps are provided, and in those where
there is, the tent is lighted by three or
four globes. On the front of the tent
in big letters are the words, “Carpa
Evangélica,” “Gospel Tent.” It is tak-
en from town to town in a small trail-
er, purchased for that purpose.

Campaign in a Town

Usually before arriving in a town
with the tent and coach, a site has
been selected and much propaganda
has been made beforehand. Some
weeks before, cardboards with the pic-
ture of the tent and the Bible coach
announcing the meetings, are placed in
the show windows. If there is a churcn
in the town, the members have long
been talking of the campaign and pray-
ing for its success.

On arriving, the first thing to do is
to go to the police station and tell the
chief of police of our plans and what
we expect to do. There is no danger
that he will hinder or oppose our cam-
paign, for we tell him that we have a
permanent permit from La Plata, the
police headquarters in the capital of
the province. This permit is for hold-
ing meetings and preaching in the
street, the tent or elsewhere, but we
come to him to ask his support and
police protection if necessary, and at
the same time donating him a Bible.
We have found up to now, that they

are always ready to defend us and not
allow our meetings to be molested.
Many would disturb us if they dared.

The tent is then erected, the bench-
es placed, the platform and pulpit ar-

‘ranged. We now start out with the

Bible coach to announce the meetings
in the tent. With a good-sized mega-
phone, we announce from the rear
window of the coach, where the tent
is located and the hour of the meet-
ings, and every now and then a Scrip-
ture text is cited. From the two side
windows, tracts and handbills are
thrown out to those who hear the horn
of the car and the announcements of
the megaphone. Sometimes the side-
walks are full of curious folks running
out to see what has happened and what
it is all about.
At the set time for the meeting,
there is a song service, and if there are
any members present, Scripture texts
are given as well as testimonies, after
which a sermon is preached, usually
by a native. After the first two or three
services, an invitation is given to the
unconverted to accept Christ. At the
close of the service, announcements
are made of women’s meetings and
children’s meetings the following after-
noon, and also that in the Bible coach
there are Bibles, New Testaments, Gos-
pels, and other helpful books for sale.
Then the main audience is dismissed
and those who are interested and man-
ifested a desire to know more about
The Way, are asked to remain. They
come forward and take the front seats
when a second service is held for them.
There are seven things we teach them:
1. To recognize that they are sin-
ners in the sight of God, and that they
need a Savior. :
2. That it is necessary to confess
their sins to Him who has promised to

pardon.

3. To abandon their sins, i. e., quit
sinning.

4. Before retiring for the night, to
get down on their knees and ask God
to pardon them of their sins (prayer).

5. Begin at once to study God’s
Word. . |

AND DIRECTORY bat y be

6. Always be ready to testify of
what God has done for them.
7. Work to get others saved.

Each one making a confession is then
handed a New Testament, and dis-
missed after first taking their names
and addresses. These names are then
handed over to the minister in charge,
who will visit them and try to line
them up for God and the Church. We
usually stay about a week in a town.
Longer would be better but it is de-
sired to cover the district before cold
weather sets in. Without a doubt, on
the return tour, we shall remain a
longer period of time in each town.

Two Months

For two months this evangelistic
campaign has been in operation with
splendid results. The tent not being
completed, when beginning the cam-
paign, the meetings were conducted
indoors in two of the towns—Alberti
and Mechita. We began using the
tent in O’Brien, an outstation in the
Bragado district.

The towns visited to date are, Al-
berti, Mechita, O’Brien, Bragado, Car-
los Casares, Martinez de Hoz, Quiro-
ga, Moctezuma, Smith, Guanaco and
before this is read, it will have been
(D. V.) in Pehuajé and perhaps in Ma-
dero and Passo.

The attendance has been from 190
to 1,000. Thousands are hearing the
plain Gospel preached that never had
an opportunity before. In summing
up the number of confessions so far,
we note that more than 500 have ex-
pressed their desire to follow the Lord
and His teachings. We do not claim
that all are converted yet (would that
they were), but we believe .that many
of them have had a real experience of
regeneration and conversion.

Many homes have been changed,
prodigals have come home, victories
over vice and open sins have been 3b-
tained, peace has been reinstated be-
tween parents and children and rela-
tives. Many have gotten the victory
over drink and the filthy weed habit.
, It is encouraging to hear the testi-

monies of recent confessions. May
God bless, save, and keep them.

We ask our brethren to continue in
prayer for these meetings. Souls must
hear of Christ who died for them.
Special request is asked for those who
work daily with the converts, and pray
much for those who made confession.
Pray, pray, and God will give the in-
crease.

‘ACTIVITIES OF THE EASTERN

MENNONITE BOARD OF MIS-
SIONS AND (CHARITIES
DURING THE PAST
YEAR

By John H. Mellinger

I have been requested to write a
brief account of the activities of the
Board during the past year. I might
say, first, that while the work has been
going on in the usual way, yet we
have reason to feel thankful that in
many ways we have been particularly
blessed. To a certain degree, the lot
of many other mission boards has also
been ours, namely the falling off of
contributions as compared with years
gone by. The reason for this state ot
affairs is, of course, apparent to all.
But we have not suffered to the ex-
tent that the work has been crippled,
or any of the workers recalled. This
condition of affairs is felt more keen-
ly for the reason that at our city mis-
sion stations the calls for charitable
work grow greater than in times of
prosperity, and our workers are often
in a quandary as to what is the best
thing to do, owing to the scarcity of
funds available for such purposes.
For years we have endeavored to re-
lieve want and suffering among the at-
tendants of our missions as much as
possible, but the conditions the last
two years have been such that we
were almost at a loss how to cope with
them. :

We are all aware that the welfare
organizations in the various cities have

12: MENNONITE YEAR-BOOK

undéftaken the work: of feeding the
hungry, yet: their work was so much
intermingled with things that we could

not subscribe to conscientiously, that

our board about a year ago came to
the conclusion that we could’ best
serve our poor and the poor of the
community in general by opéning a re-
lief station of our'!own in Lancaster.
This was opened in the city of Lan-
caster on the corner of Locust and
Pershing Sts., and carried on until
May, 1933. About $15,000 worth of
provisions, clothing, and fuel was dis-
tributed at a very small cost, and to
the general satisfaction of all concern-
ed. This year there are many more

part of the county, has again been
taken up and new life has been man-
ifested in the work. Attendance has
increased, and with the enthusiasm
manifested by those having the work :
in charge, we trust that the work can
be successfully continued.

During the last year Bro. Elam W.
Stauffer, one of the missionaries ap-
pointed for the African field, held a
series of meetings at Rawlinsville, one
of our preaching and Sunday school
stations, and as a result there were five
confessions, all colored people. There
being a number of colored members of
our church scattered over the coun-
ty, the question naturally arises, what

Weaverland Church, Where Farewell Meeting Was Held for New
Missionaries to Africa

employed, according to N. R. A. offi-
cials, and the state and federal gov-
ernments have made arrangements
that all needy ones can be taken care
of, so we deemed it unnecessary to
open a relief station, and will only try
to take care of the poor connected
with our missions.

All our stations have been in opera-
tion during the past year, and we are
gratified to know of the good inter-
est manifested in nearly all of them.
At some of the stations quite a num-
ber of confessions are recorded, as
well as admissions to the Church.

The work that had previously been
dropped at Oak Shade, in the southern

is to be done? Shall they be taken in-
to the various congregations or would
it be best to form a separate congre-
gation just for colored members? Our
bishop board seemed to incline to the
latter view, and accordingly a color-
ed Sunday school has been opened on
Howard Avenue in Lancaster City,
and preaching services are also being
held for them. What the final out-
come will be remains to be seen. The
interest is good.

The matter of establishing a mis-
sion in far-off Africa has been agitat-
ed for several years and the interest
continued to grow, and finally after
much prayer and discussion, the board

AND DIRECTORY 13

was encouraged to proceed in the
work by the Church in general and
by our bishop board in particular, and
the work has been launched. Breth-
ren Elam W. Stauffer and John H.
Mosemann, Jr., and their wives have
been appointed to inaugurate the
work. Bro. Mosemann and wife are
at present attending the American Bi-
ble Institute in New York City, where
in addition to other studies, they are
taking a short course in medicine
which is available for prospective mis-
sionaries in that institution. They en-
tered in September and will continue
until about April.
On Saturday, Dec. 2, an inspiration-
al and farewell meeting was held at
the Weaverland Church as Bro. Stauf-
fer and Bro. Orie Miller intended sail-
ing on the following Thursday, Dec.
7, for Africa. Bro. Miller is accom-
panying Bro. Stauffer to assist him in
the selection of a field of labor. They
will enter Egypt at Alexandria and
then proceed southward by rail to
Khartoum when further travel will be
by boat on the Nile River. Some-
where in the eastern part of the con-
tinent is where they are expected to
locate, but it shall be as the Lord leads.
After a location has been found, it
is the intention of Bro. Miller to pro-
ceed to India to visit the missions
there and then return home. Soon after
a permanent location has been decid-
ed upon, and after they have finished
their studies, Bro. Mosemann and
wife and Sister Stauffer will be sent to
join Bro. Stauffer for the work there.
We think we realize the responsi-
bilities of the undertaking, but we re-

ly on the prayers of God’s people and.

the guidance of the Holy Spirit to be
with us in the work.

Any one who attended the meeting
at Weaverland could not help but be
impressed by the presence of the Spir-
it, and the wonderful interest mani-
fested in the work. We do believe
that prayers and good wishes avail

much, and the departing brethren
were certainly remembered in this
way.

On Thursday, Dec. 7, at 12:30 A,
M. the steamship “Bremen” slipped
from her pier at the North German
Lloyd docks, Brooklyn, New York, and
floated toward the ocean, bearing
about 700 passengers, among whom
were our brethren, destined for Africa.
About fifty of the brethren and sisters
from our Lancaster County churches
were present to see them depart. Pre-
vious to their departure, an impressive
farewell meeting was held on board
the boat, after which all visitors were
requested to leave, and after a delay
of an hour, the ship floated down the
bay, and the first foreign missionaries
sent by our Board, were on their way.
May God’s richest blessings attend
them.

A change has also been made in the
financial policy of the Board during
the past year. This change has to do
with the matter of annuities. Hereto-
fore it has been the custom to have
annuities written in such a way that
after the death of the annuitant, the
investment of the funds was to con-
tinue, and the income to be used for
any purpose that the annuitant would
designate. Continuing this practice
through the years, it is evident that
a large sum of money would be held
by investment, and the risk of loss
would become greater as the years
rolled on. No corporation can con-
tinue to invest a large amount cf
funds for all time without incurring
a great risk of loss and consequent
detriment to the work.

The plan that has been decided up-
on is to invest the funds given on the
annuity plan, and have the agreement
written that on the death of the an-
nuitant the funds can be withdrawn
from investment and placed in the
general fund for use in the work.
This will greatly diminish the risk of
loss and also prove a help in the work
by having these funds released. As
time goes on, we pass away one by one
and anything we have done in this way
goes directly to the use of the Board.
The plan seems to meet with the ap-
proval of our people, as all who have

14 MENNONITE YEAR-BOOK

been approached in regard to having
the conditions of their annuity con-
tracts changed to the plan adopted,
have heartily agreed to it.

For some years there has been a
small congregation of our people lo-
cated in the city of York, the services
being in charge of the ministry of the
Stony Brook congregation, a few miles
east of the city. Some of the mem-
bers have been advocating .more ac-
tive work among the people of the
city, and they appealed to the Mis-
sion Board to establish a mission there.
The matter was taken into considera-
tion and some investigations made,
and it was decided that for the present,
stronger efforts should be made in the
way of building up the Sunday school
and having regular preaching serv-
ices. Bro. Frank Leaman of Inter-
course, Lancaster Co., was appointed
to superintend the work, and the in-
terest is growing. Some time in the
future we hope a regular mission sta-
tion will be established.

IMPRESSIONS OF GENERAL
CONFERENCE

By J. P. Brubaker

On the evening of August 20 as I
approached Hesston College campus,
my first thought was, What a change?
Where the old unused foundation used
to 'be, stood the large assembly tent,
with light wires and amplifier cord
connecting the tent with the power line
and with loud speakers located at ad-
vantageous points over the campus.
Adjacent to the power house and
laundry was another large tent where
food was prepared and served. Here
one was impressed with the fact that
one could get along nicely without
some of the “fixins” of former years.
What a task! we thought, as we look-
ed at the scene, impossible for one
man alone, but possible through the
organization of the many. How true
is this fact in all the work our Master
would have us do. When God said, “It

is not good for man to be alone,’ He
expressed a need that is satisfied, not
only in acquiring a woman for him,
but in giving him various other asso-
ciations as well. May it ever be our
watchword as a Church; we will never
fall if we stand together on the unfail-
ing Word of God.

Perhaps the most lasting impres-
sions were made by “just folks.” Old
friends, new friends, leaders, and
speakers all left an imprint on our
mental film. We were cheered by the
loyalty and stability of many faithful
ones, both young and old, which was
manifested by conduct and accomplish-
ment. We did not feel with Elijah
that, “I only am left.” Then there
were those who, by conduct and ap-
pearance, made us feel sad; sad be-
cause some one was not enjoying a
surrendered and victorious life; sad
because some one’s usefulness in home,
church, and community was marred.
As there always is in a crowd, there
were folks with different tempera-
ments. Some were rushing here and
there, always in a hurry, and passing
one by, though they did not accom-
plish any more than those fellow pil-
grims who were never too busy to
pause a moment to meet a friend or
help someone in an emergency. Among
the young folks, there were some flip-
pant, giggly ones whose greatest ambi-
ticn seemed to be to attract attention to
themselves. There were also constant
thoughtful young men and women who
gave evidence of a sane and sober
outlook on life. Among the children
there was evidence of careful teach-
ing and training, while perhaps some
acted more as if they had just “grow-
ed up”.

I was also impressed with the work
of the local committees. I was made |
to think of the old proverb, “A place
for everything and everything in its
place.’ Somewhere on the grounds
there seemed to be a job for each one,
and each one seemed to be at his job.
What a strange sight such a confer-
ence would have been thirty years
ago! Loud speakers so that messages

AND DIRECTORY 15

could be heard anywhere on _ the
grounds, every kind of convenience
for the comfort and welfare of visi-
tors, cars from the most distant cor-
ners of our land parked along side of
tents, tables, and gasoline or oil stoves,
where families or friends cooked their
meals. in modern camp style. One
who had attended many of our gener+
al assemblies would no doubt have no-
ticed improvement and progress on ev-
ery hand. Now the questions come:
Has the efficiency of Conference to
meet the need of the Church in gen-
eral kept pace with material develop-
ments? Have the spiritual problems
been as ably solved as have the prob-
lems of housing and feeding an ever-
increasing attendance? Has _ spiritual
power increased with the increase of
organizations and endeavors?

Next the program itself. forms a
subject for much comment. It first
gives evidence of a wide range of ac-
tivity on the part:of the Church as a
whole. From the lowly mother, who
sews a simple garment to give to a
needy neighbor, to the mission doc-
tor, who hands out Gospel truth while
he dispenses pills, there is a place for
each individual Christian. No one can
say that the ‘Church has no program
to fit his particular. talents or qualifi-
cations. Leaders and followers, over-
seers and laborers, teachers and learn-
ers, there is a place for all in ‘God’s
program. | ie

Second, the various parts of the
program gave evidence of a balanced
program. One particular phase of
work was not pushed to the undue ex-
pense of another. Current issues were
rightly given special consideration,
while subjects recalling the work of
the past and strengthening men for
the future, were also ably discussed.
Thus we see not only a balanced ac-
tivity ‘but also a correlated activity.
How can these various activities,
working together, be made most ef-
fectively to serve the purpose of bring-
ing the Gospel to a lost world and of
building “up the saints in ‘holy ‘love
and faith? aa

Coming to the speakers, they per-
haps gave me the most varied impres-
sions. As a whole they impressed one
with the fact that they had given much
thought and study to their part of the
program. Their messages were born
of. conviction and prayer. Each de4-
nitely emphasized the work of his par-

ticular field without minimizing the
work of another. As individuals each
speaker showed particular strong

points and sometimes weak points as
well. Here a brother leads out because
of a gift of speaking, there another is
valuable because of leadership, or wise
counsel, or keen insight into the Scrip-
tures. Some men stand out prominent-
ly because of the constant atmosphere
of devotion they carry with them. Some
men impressed one because of their
ability to see both sides of a question
and choose the wisest course for all
concerned. Some speakers may have
seemed too stern or definite, while oth-
ers were too general and apologetic.
How true that the Spirit has set men,
‘as he will.”

The last impressions we want to
mention have to do with the surround-
ing nonchurch community. They too
anticipated large crowds and business.
They are to be commended for their
interest and valuable help. What were
their impressions? Did the conference
leave with them only memories of
people, automobiles, work, and excite-
ment, or did they get the real signifi-
cance of the event? Did they get the
impression that here is a people given
over to a spiritual task, to a task that
has to do with souls and eternity, to a
task that is divinely appointed and for
which they are held responsible for
its accomplishment? May our General
Conferences continue to grow in pow-
er and efficiency. May they ever be
the means of keeping the body of our
Mennonite people grounded firmly on
the solid rock, ‘Christ Jesus, keeping
true to the faith for which our fore-
bears gave their lives.

GOD SO LOVED

“For God so loved the world, that
he gave his only. begotten son, that
whosoever believeth in him, should

not perish, but have everlasting life”
(John 3:16).

God so loved us, every one,

He gave His only begotten Son;
If on Him we will believe,

Life eternal we’ll receive.

To the blind did God give sight,
Of the world, He is the Light;
If His Words we will obey,
He will lead us all the way.

Jesus loves us, this we know,

He came to earth His love to
show;

For our life—His own He gave,

From death eternal—He does save.

OPPORTUNITIES BEFORE THE
CHURCH OF TO-DAY

By O. N. Johns

Every age has its opportunities.
Sometimes we feel as though others,
or those who lived in by-gone days,
had more opportunities than we have
for accomplishing great things. But,
as a matter of fact, we all have ampue
opportunities of doing good, if we will
only avail ourselves of them.

The Church has great opportunities
before her to-day, the same as she has
had in the past. Our prayer is, that
the Church of to-day might be awak-
ened’ out of her sleep into a living ex-
perience with Christ our Savior.

Let us walk circumspectly, redeem-
ing the time because the days are evil.
Let us make a little survey of the op-
portunities which are before us as a
church to-day. We choose to note
them under three groups.

1. The Opportunity of Repression.

2. The Opportunity of Expression.

3. The Opportunity of Preparation

for a Bright Future.

The Opportunity of Repression

The Christian warfare is both ag-
gressive and defensive. There are
certain things that are constantly mak-

ing inroads into the Christian faith.
Worldliness in its various forms is be-
ing forced upon the Church by Satan,

the god of this world. The. Church

needs to set herself in array against
this.

To-day is an opportune time for the
Church to repress this tidal wave of
sin. If we drop our hands and give up
in despair now, the result will be dis-
astrous. We still have young breth-
ren and sisters as well as older ones
who will contend for the faith once
delivered unto the saints, if they will
receive some encouragement.

The doctrine of salvation through
faith in Jesus Christ and Him cruci-
fied, whom God raised up, is being
jeopardized; the Genesis account of
the creation is being questioned;
God’s teaching on eternal punishment
is being ignored; many men’s stand-
ards in life, social, religious, and busi-
ness, are being lowered. Our credit is
no longer as universal as it once was,
because of the dishonesty that has
crept into the Church.

These things have not gotten such
a hold on our Church yet but that
they can be repressed if we as Chris-
tians unitedly cry aloud and spare not.
What an opportune time to labor to-
gether with God to keep the Church
pure!

The Opportunity of Expression

“Hereby perceive we the love of
God, because he laid down his life for
us: and we ought to lay down our
lives for the brethren. But whoso
hath this world’s good, and seeth his
brother have need, and shutteth up
his bowels of compassion from him,
how dwelleth the love of God in him”
(I John 3:16,17)? Because of the
present economic conditions, we have
a special privilege of expressing the
love of God, shed abroad in our
hearts by the Holy Ghost, by giving
help to the poor. God’s command is
“Remember the poor” (Gal. 2:10).

Expression of the will of God. God
has commissioned His Church to
preach the Gospel to every creature.

A time of darkness and distress is a

tinents are open for the Gospel.
Expression of the power of God.
We can give expression to life by let-
ting our lights shine. In a world where
sin and crime are so prevalent, the
Christian life will stand out all the
more noticeable. The darker the night,
the brighter the light seems. “Men
loved darkness, rather than light, be-
cause their deeds were evil.” Let us
therefore dispel the darkness of this
world by reflecting the Christ life so
that the wicked and sinful may not

be able to find a hiding place behind ©

some weak church member.

It takes the grace and power of God
through the Spirit to be able to live
the Christlike life in these days. But
God has said, “My grace is sufficient
for thee.” Let us pray for one anoth-
er, that we may be able to live the
nonresistant, mnonconformed to the
world, simple, consecrated, and holy
life, for to-day there are those who
ere ready to receive teachings like
these, who, in the past, would have
given no listening ear.

Opportunity of Preparation

We are looking for the return of
our Lord at any time. We feel that
the Scriptures have been sufficiently
fulfilled for His coming. Nevertheless
we want to provide enough oil (Holy
Ghost) so that, if He should tarry for
some time yet, we would still be pre-
pared to meet Him.

When we look at our Church; our
splendid group of young people that
are coming on; our forefathers, and
the heritage they gave us; the scrip-
tural teachings we have received; and
the many opportunities that are af-
forded us through the Church for the
development of the individual for serv-
ice—such as our many mission activ:
ities, our educational institutions,
church publications, young people’s

institutes, winter Bible schools, sum-
mer Bible schools, midweek prayer
meetings, Bible study classes, confer-
ences—such as Church conferences,
Sunday school conferences, Bible con-
ferences, Christian Life conferences,
etc.,—besides our Sunday schools and
young people’s Bible meetings, we are
made to rejoice and to “praise God fer
His goodness and for His wonderful
works to the children of men,” and
we also are made to appreciate our
Church’ all the ‘more. I think our
young people especially should appre-
ciate the Church and praise God for
such opportunities.

May the Church also realize that if
we would have a Church that can be
presented unto Christ, a glorious
Church, without spot or wrinkle, when
He shall return, we must continue to
feed, indoctrinate, develop, and bring
up our young people in the nurture
and admonition of the Lord.

Our country is spending large sums
of money for the welfare and safety
of the children. As a Church we too
can well afford to use of that with
which the Lord has blessed us, not
for the gratifying of the flesh of our
young folks (or even ourselves) but
for their spiritual development, that
they may be living witnesses for the
Lord, now and in the days to come,
and staunch supporters of the doc-
trines of God and also oftthe Church.

It is true that some, or all, of the
above named organizations and insti-
tutions may be a hindrance to the
cause of Christ and the Church, if con-
ducted and directed in the wrong way,
and therefore with the organization or
institution comes a problem. May we
seriously and prayerfully, yet cheer-
fully, meet these problems and spon-
sor a constructive program in the sight
of God, heading these organizations
and institutions with faithful and com-
petent brethren who have hazarded
their lives for the cause of Christ and
the Church. Present-day conditions

especially upon the young Christians,

OUR EDUCATIONAL WORK

By D. A. Yoder

The Educational work of the Men-
nonite Church is one of vital import-
ance to many of our people. This is
shown more and more as we note the
increased interest which is taken in
this part of the Church’s program.
This interest is shown in a number
of ways: The maintenance of an Ed-
ucational Board in the Church; the
establishment of three Church schools;
the operation of an increased number
of short term Bible schools; the in-
creased attendance at Church schools
in general and the deep concern which
is manifest in nearly all sections of the
Church for the educational welfare of
our young people.

Is there a need for the educational
in our church program? This ques-
tion has been asked again and again ~
and has been answered in various
ways. Our young people are no differ-
ent from others when it comes to their
desire for more advanced work in ed-
ucation. They aim to become profi-
cient in whatever work they wish to
pursue, hence many of them go to
school somewhere to prepare for their
life work. When we know that a
large number of institutions of learn-
ing make no pretense of caring for the
spiritual welfare of the student, and
that many others which once stood
for righteousness and truth have left |
the simple teachings of the Gospel, it
at once makes us feel that there is a
real need which should be met by the
Church. We believe that our people
who will go to school are deserving of
the best. I do not mean the best only
in educational lines, but the best in
teaching and environments which will
hold forth the faith and practices of
the Mennonite Church.

One statement which has often been
made is that many who attend our
schools afterward leave the Church,
and that their usefulness is lost to us.
There is too much truth in the state-
ment, but if we were to make compar-

AND DIRECTORY 19

isons with other losses to the Church
it might not be as bad as it looks to
be at first. I would venture the state-
ment that the losses among those who
go to other schools or to no schools
at all are proportionately larger than
among those who go to our own
schools. One task of the Board is to
put an appeal into the educational
work of the Church that will tend to
save for God and the Church.

We have a distinct message to the
world which we know will not be giv-
en in the secular schools neither in
other denominational schools, hence it
is urgent that we give it in schools
of our own, under our own board, or-
ganized and controlled by the Church.

Our opportunities as a Board are
varied. Among these are: To give
a secular education to our young peo-
ple amidst surroundings conducive to
spiritual growth; to secure teachers
who are not only spiritual but also liv-
ing exponents of the doctrines of
Christ and the Church. Too often we
think that our schools are for our own
only and forget that in them we have
untold opportunities to show to others
our principles of faith and practice.
Our message is not only for those
whom we call our own but for all to
whom we may be able to give it. We
can see to it that our schools make
added provision for the study of the
Word of God and preparation . for
service in the Church.

Too often as a Board we think our
work is ended when we have had an
annual meeting, have heard reports,
discussed a few general questions,
elected officers, and adjourned. In-
stead of this being the end of our
year’s work it is only the beginning.
True, much of the work is delegated
to certain individuals or committees,
whose task is to wrestle with particular
problems, but much remains for the
other Board members to do, such as
bringing to the Church the needs of
the Board and its particular prob-
lems from time to time; keeping in
touch with those who are inclined to
go to school; and doing our part to

get them to attend our own schools.
Our: task is to work with Church,
board, and _ schools’ constructively,
rather than in a destructive way. We
may not always be able to accomplish
what we would like, but we can at
least keep on working. It is not a time
to give up, but rather’a time when the
challenge is greater and demands more
effort on the part of every member.
What are our aims? It is not only
our aim to have schools, but ‘to have
schools where our people can be be:-
ter prepared to work in our own
Church. We are not looking forward
to the establishment of more schools,
but rather to caring for those we al-
ready have more adequately in provid-
ing ways and means to do more effi-
cient work. Our slogan should be,
Not more schools but better. We have
not reached the ideal, but we are
striving toward it, aiming to put into
practice the purposes for which the
Board was called into existence.
Any work of the Church has its
problems, ‘and without the problems
the work would not be worth while.
The establishing of an educational
program in the Church was brought
about because of the problems along
the line of education, and if we should
cease our efforts to meet them we
would still have the same problems,
only in a larger way, and we would
be less able to cope with them. One
of the questions facing us continually
is how to get more of our Mennon-
ite students to attend our: Church
schools. Too many are attending oth-
er schools, both secular and denomi-
national. Some of the reasons given
are as follows: We cannot get the
work we want; we .can get the work
nearer home; we do not have enough
confidence in the stability of the edu-
cational work of the Church, etc. How
overcome these and other reasons giv-
en is one of the continual problems of
the Board. May we as a Church get
back of this work and support it in
all ways and so create a greater con-
, fidence, and especially as Board mem-

bers do all in our power to help make
9

20 MENNONITE YEAR-BOOK

the work worthy of support. We must
show to the Church that our schools
put a religious emphasis into their
life, while many schools either wholly
neglect this or have a questionable em-
phasis. |

The question of accreditment comes
up continually, and it must be met.
The students demand it so that their
work may be properly evaluated when
they get out into life to earn their
livelihood. The Church demands it
because as a people we do not want to
spend our money where the returns
are questionable when we go out into
our life’s work. We have tried to
meet this question by securing quali-
fied teachers and putting on a type of
work which compares favorably with
the work of state and other schools.

Under these times of depression the
problem of finances is one of much
concern. If it were not for the noble
sacrifices which the faculties have been
making it would be next to impossible
to go on. But with a standing togeth-
er and making changes here anid
there we have been able to go on,
and with the support of the Church
and the help of God, I believe we shall
be able to continue with better schools
than ever before.

When we mention support of the
Board the question of finances natur-
ally arises in our minds, but there are
other ways of support which neces-
sarily should come first. The Board
is the product of the Church and feels
that the united prayers of all are
needed so that its work may be car-
ried on successfully. We need the
moral support of ministers, board
‘members, and; laity. Every minister
should do his part in the congregation
where he is located by prayer, by
presenting needs of the Board, and by
taking a constructive rather than a de-
structive attitude. Every Board mem-
ber should realize that it is his duty
to try to further the Board’s interest
in the district which he represents. He
should not only be interested in get-
ting finances but also in keeping be-

fore the people the various needs of»

the Board. Every member, being a
part of the larger body, should not
only look on, thinking that the task
belongs to a few who have been giv-
en special place, but should do his
part in prayer, encouragement, and
financial support.

The educational work in the Church
is not the result of a passing fancy,
but it is the result of seeing a real need
and an attempt to meet this need in
a way that will be of most good to
the most people in the Church. May
God, who overrules all, guide in this
part of the Church’s program.

“LOOKING UNTO JESUS”

By Jacob H. Mellinger

In this present time of financial de-
pression, when our rulers are seem-
ingly using every available means to
bring back a condition of prosperity to
our country, we are made to wonder
sometimes if they have not neglected
to consult Him before whom the na-
tions “are as a drop of a bucket,” and
by whose hand the kingdoms of this
world are disposed of as He wills. If
they were to take God into their plans
to a greater degree and depend
less on human ‘ingenuity and _ the
“brain trust,” there is reason to believe
that they would be even more success-
ful in their efforts. For God has de-
clared in His Word, “Them that hon-
our me I will honour, and they that
despise me shall be lightly esteemed.”
The Church may well take warning
against making a similar mistake. In
Heb. 12:2 we are admonished as in-
dividuals and as a body to be contin-
ually “looking unto Jesus.”

The Church has much work to do.
When Jesus gave His disciples His
last message before leaving them, He
told them to go and teach all nations.
They were to baptize believers in the
name of Father, the Son, and the Holy
Ghost. They were to “teach them to
observe all things whatsoever I have

AND DIRECTORY: | 21

commanded you.” Then He gave the
promise—‘Lo, I am with you alway.”
The Church has never been released
from this obligation, and when in the
right condition, it can always claim
this promise. And when we consid-
er the hundreds of millions in foreign
and in home lands who know nothing
about Christ, it is very evident that
the missionary work everywhere needs
to be pressed; the ground that is gain-
ed must be held; Christ’s sheep must
be taught and cared for. With all this
work of the Church, in order that it
may be properly done, she must he
constantly “looking unto Jesus.”

With the work of the Church many
problems arise as to how it shall be
done. Every local congregation has
its problems, as has every conference,
district or general. Every mission
station has its problems—every city
mission, rural mission, foreign mission
—each has its own peculiar problems,
and the boards that direct them have
their own problems that need to be
solved. Then there are the education-
al problems, and the young people’s
problems, and the dress problem, and
still more problems. All these need all
the wisdom that can possibly be ob-
tained. But in the solving of these
problems, unless there is a constant
looking to Jesus, the solution will nev-
er be satisfactory.

Then there is the opposition which
the Church must encounter—opposi-
tion within and without. There is at
the present time a determined opposi-
tion against the Church from without.
There is the opposition from other re-
ligions, who because they do not know
the blessings of Christianity, seek to
oppose it. Then we have the opposi-
tion of unbelievers— infidels, free-
thinkers, atheists, and others like them.
And then we have the spectacle of
one of the greatest nations of earth,
one that was once a professedly Chris-
tian nation, on account of gross world-
liness in the Church, turning against
it and seeking to drive it completely
from its borders. This nation is appar-
ently trying to sow this same seed of

opposition in other nations wherever
it can. boxe

Worse and more subtle in its work-
ings than any of these, is opposition
from within—a falling away, a depart-
ure on the part of many from the
faith, and a seeking to set up a so-call-
ed Christian religion, in which human
intelligence or reason is placed above
the Word. We know what a strong
footing this has obtained in the pro-
fessed church, and the mischievous
work it has done and is still doing
there. Then there are those who have
allowed themselves to drift into luke-
warmness, or coldness, or worldliness,
and as such are constantly helping to
weaken the Church. We can not by
reasoning, or by argument, or by any
power in ourselves, overcome this op-
position. While the Church must do
her work, uphold the banner of the
cross, contend earnestly for the faith,
and let her light shine before men, it
is only by looking to the Master, and
in the strength that we receive from
Him, that she can successfully cope
with this opposition.

We can easily understand why this
is. so. Jesus Christ founded the
Church. He purchased it with His
own blood. He is its head: He directs
its activities with and through the
Holy Spirit and the Word. He cares
for it and upholds it with His power.
Some ‘time He is coming for it again,
to receive it as His bride unto Him-
self. Why should we not be constant-
ly looking unto Him? As Peter said,
“Lord to whom shall we go? Thou
Last the words of eternal life.”

We look to Jesus for guidance—
“When he the Spirit of truth is come,
he will guide you into all truth.’ We
look to Him for keeping—‘“The Lord
is thy keeper.” “The Lord shall pre-
serve thee from all evil.” We look fo
Jesus for power—‘‘But ye shall receive
power after that the Holy .Ghost is
come upon you.’ We look to Jesus
for wisdom—“If any of you lack wis-
dom, let him ask of God, that giveth
to all men liberally,; and upbraideth
not; and it shall be given him.” We

22 MENNONITE YEAR-BOOK

look to.-Him for daily. supplies, both
temporal and spiritual—‘‘But my God
shall supply all your need according
to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
We look to Him for everything, be-

cause “in him dwelleth all the fulness ©

of the Godhead bodily.”

There is a tendency on the part of
the Church to look elsewhere than to
Jesus; to place too much confidence
in human leaders; to be “of Paul,” or
tof A polbos,” oF tof" Céphas’- (2 Paul
told the Corinthians that he “deter-
mined not to know anything among
‘you, save Jesus Christ and him cruci-
fied.” Perhaps we are stressing the
cause of education too hard.. We for-
get what the Word says about it, and
the innumerable examples of what has
happened to those who have trusted in
it. Then we place too much confi-
dence in what we can do; the im-
pression we can make through our own
efforts. We like to please and be pleas-
ed. We like to entertain and be en-
tertained, and make believe it is the
Spirit of God working. We like enter-
tainment in the pulpit and out of it.
And possibly we would rather go to
church to hear a program rendered,
or to hear an entertaining talk, than
to meet to bring an offering of praise
and worship. And besides these things
help to swell the crowd, and perhaps
the receipts also. When we look to
these things instead of to Jesus in our
Christian work, it is time that like Mr.
Munhall of the M. E. Church, we be-
gin to fear “breakers ahead.” .

It is also possible that the Church
may be counting the favor of the pow-
ers that be. The Church of God dare
not but be loyal to the government un-
der which it is. living, and support it
even if it means oppression, as long
as she is not asked to violate con-
science. But when we think we must
help regulate the government, in or-
cer that we may be sure of getting a
fair deal, we are getting our eyes off
the Master, and are in danger of los-
ing the very thing we are. trying to
gain. Sacrificing. principle for any
cause whatever, always means _ loss.

When the early Church united with
the state it gained in numbers, but suf-_
fered woefully in spirituality.

In our individual experience we need
to learn the same lessons. We look
too much to ourselves and to the
things of this life. We all meet with
hard problems, and dark places, and
unpleasant experiences, and with temp-
tation, and sorrow and pain and suffer-
ing, and things that we can not un-
derstand, and we try to live these
things down in our own strength. Like
Peter, we get our eyes off the Master,
and see the storms of life around us,
and we begin to sink. We forget that
in our weakness, Jesus’. strength is
made. perfect; that He was: in. all
things tempted like unto us, yet with-
out sin; that He will not suffer us to
ibe tempted above what we are able to
bear; that He is the light of life; that
He invites us all to come to Him, and
we shall find rest to our souls; that
He is the Good Shepherd, and knows
His sheep; that 'He is continually
leading them; and that they shall nev-
er want. He has promised to be with
us always, even unto the end of the
world. Surely under these conditions,
as a ‘Church and as individuals, we
should be constantly “looking unto
Jesus,” and in so doing we shall find
life, and rest, and joy, and peace, and
victory.

ACTIVITIES OF THE MENNON-
ITE CENTRAL COMMITTEE

By Levi Mumaw

During the year 1933 no large out-
standing movement of refugees was
undertaken although there were defi-
nite calls for such service. Early in
the year the major activities in Men-
nonite relief were directed to sending
relief to the needy in Russia. This
work was carried on mainly by the
‘different relief organizations in this
country direct with established agen-
cies in New York. and Germany, and
not through the office of the Mennon-
ite Central Committee.

The touch with the newly establish-
ed colony in Paraguay has been con-

of the colony. Early in the year a
serious epidemic of malaria fever
broke out, which lasted over a period
of about six months and at times was
very serious in its effect on the colony.
Through the aid of the military physi-
cians stationed in the colony hospi-
tal, which was used for wounded sol-
diers, and the sending of large ship-
ments of medicine from Germany, the
plague was stayed, and normal health
has again been restored, although the
effects of the disease will be felt for
some time.

Through a verbal report given to the
Committee by Dr. Jacob Quiring, who
had spent nine months in the colony
and recently returned, to Germany by
way of this country, it has been learn-

The New Hospital at Philadelphia, Argentina, Fernheim Mennonite Colony

tinued, and certain relief was given
early in the year. Because of lack of
funds at our disposal and to enable the
colony to assume more direct responsi-
bility the entire budget as previously
assumed was not carried out in de-
tail. It has not been possible to re-
duce the loans made by the Commit-
tee for the purpose of supporting the
Harbin refugee movement of the pre-
vious year.

The war between Paraguay and
Bolivia has had its effect on the affairs

ed that the colony has made real prog-
ress despite the many hindrances on
account of the war and otherwise. He
reported that there is an abundance
of food, such as can be raised in the
colony, on hand. The more serious
problem is to secure such other grocer-
ies as are needed to supplement what is
being raised. There is a need of some
adjustment by the colonists to the
foods available in this way. The land
is very productive, and with the wide
range of planting seasons the matter

24 MENNONITE YEAR-BOOK

of raising garden crops, as well as field
crops, is made easier than in many
other countries. . :
The one special inconvenience to
the progress of the colony is the ex-
cessive heat during the summer sea-
son. With the present depression in
world markets, the colonists find them-
selves in a situation similar to many
other countries, and, because of the
distance from the larger markets, find
it almost impossible to market their
surplus foods at this time. This means
a real shortage in cash to such neces-
sities of life as clothing, salt, seed, etc.
‘There is a movement on foot to plant
a larger acreage to cotton for the com-
ing season. A liberal amount of cot-
tonseed has been supplied to the col-
ony for planting, and new hopes are
fostered along this line. The sale of

‘cotton this year was encouraging, al-_
though the crop was much less than :t ~

should have been because of not hay-

ing the acreage planted. It is said that

no other country will produce the
amount of cotton that is possible to
raise per acre in the Chaco, where the
colony is located. It is hoped that this
will become the main cash crop for
the colony.

While those in the Chaco were busy
getting settled in their new home, a
group of about thirty families have
still been detained at Harbin, China.
Although the task of moving them to
Paraguay, to be united with those who
had gone before, was delayed because
of lack of funds, they were not forgot-
ten. Through the efforts of Bro. Un-
ruh in Germany a portion of the funds
needed for this purpose was pledged
by several relief. organizations having
offices at Geneva. The Holland Men-
nonites also. made a definite pledge of
what they would be willing to supply
for the movement. On receipt of this
information by the Central Commit-
tee the task was again taken under
advisement, and. the matter was
brought to the attention of the different
Mennonite relief organizations in this
country. It was agreed that no move-
ment of these people could be under-

taken until the former obligations as-
sumed in this work would have been
covered in some way and enough
funds were available or pledged for
the new movement. The matter was
brought to the General Conference.
District Conferences took up the work.
At the present time the outlook for the
final movement of these people looks
encouraging, although an amount of
$8,000.00 more is needed. The work
will be continued, and it is hoped that
the definite plans for sailing may be.
made not later than March 1, 1934.
This is the immediate task facing us.

and discontented, retiring into corners
to unburden his murmurings; but, on
the contrary, he is so truly from the
place of faith doing the works of faith,
according as the interests of Christ are
presented to him, that he knows in
his own soul the reward of faith. He
has his wages—fullness of joy—Christ
unfolding Himself to him in blessed
nearness, and he knowing the fellow-
ship of the Holy Ghost; and what the
Kingdom of God is—even righteous-
ness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

AND DIRECTORY 20

THE MENNONITE MARTYRS

By John Horsch

The most important source for the
study of the martyrs is the great work
compiled by Thieleman Janz van
Braght, of Dortrecht, Holland, in 1660.
Its title, Martyrs’ Mirror, is véry aptly
chosen, for the book reflects clearly
the inner life, the spirit, the disposition
and the motives of the martyrs. There
are, in the first place, the accounts of
their martyrdom and the preceding im-
prisonments, often in noisome dunge-
ons, and the description of the cruel
tortures to which they were subjected
and of their final execution, all of
which they bore in Christian patience
and fortitude.

Of equal importance and value as
the accounts of their sufferings and
martyrdom are their numerous let-
ters written in the prisons which are
contained in this work and which pre-
sent a mirror of the anner life of the
martyrs. These letters
spirit of deepest piety, devotion, and
consecration, of glowing certainty and
immovable conviction, of ardent love
to God and the brotherhood. They in-
dicate complete submissiveness to bear

that which the Lord would permit
concerning them; they express the
willingness and readiness to suffer

and, if need be, to die for the faith.

The question is here pertinent, What
were, in the last analysis, the motives
in the willingness of the martyrs to
die for the faith? One might say that
they died for the sake of various doc-
trines and principles, and this is in-
deed a fact. It is true, but is not the
whole truth. The fundamental reason
why they held fast to these principles
unto death was that they were con-
vinced that to deny their faith would
be disloyalty to Christ. Their faithful-
ness and constancy were rooted and
grounded in their love to ‘Christ.

The fact deserves notice that evi-
dently ‘there was no unhealthy, fanati-
cal desire for martyrdom. True, a
number of the martyrs expressed
themselves in a way which at first

breathe the

glance might seem to indicate such a
desire. For instance, Adrian Pan
wrote that he never had a happier day ~
in a dungeon of Het Steen prison at
Antwerp than the day when he was
sentenced to death, and Julius Bern-
arts said: “When the sentence of death
was pronounced over me, my joy was
full, since my redemption was so near.”
Others also have expressed themselves
in a similar way. But such utteranc-
es must be considered in the light of
the plain fact that there was abso-
lutely no hope for liberation from
their inhuman imprisonment during
which they were, as a rule, at intervals
subjected to the most cruel torture.
To be apprehended and imprisoned
meant certain death for them and it
was only natural that they did not de-
sire their time of dreadful suffering to
be prolonged.

Nevertheless, they were fully resign-
ed to ‘the will of the Lord. “My dear
friends, thus I am still minded, and I
so love my Lord and my God that, if
I could save my life by a thought, and
I knew that it did not please the Lord,
I would rather die than to think such
a thought.” An evidence of the ab-
sence of an unsound desire for mar-
tyrdom is also the fact that they were
possessed by an ardent love for their
kin, of which there is abundant proof
in their letters. In the letters written
in the prisons husbands often take a
touching farewell from their wives,
and wives from their husbands, or
fathers and mothers from their chil-
dren. “Kiss my little Susanneken (pet
name for Susanna) for me,’ Hendrik
Verstralen wrote twice in a letter to
his wife. Jerome Segers in his prison
at Antwerp, having heard of the great
grief of his wife because of his im-
prisonment, wrote to her, after re-
minding her of their future reunion be-
fore the Lord: “Oh, that I might be’
able by my suffering to relieve your
anxiety, I should gladly suffer death
for you!” “We leave our dear little
children,” wrote a woman in prison,
“whom I would not forsake for all the
treasures of the world; could we do

26 MENNONITE YEAR-BOOK

this, if we were not
ground?” | .
“ The martyrs looked constantly to

God for His presence and help, hav-

ing the firm conviction that nothing
could befall them without His will and
permission. “They cannot hurt a hair
of our head without the will of our
Father,” wrote William Droogscherd-
er from his prison. Another wrote:
“My dear friends, the more tribula-
tion there is to try us, the more we
are.comforted through Christ; this we
have fully experienced.” They expe-
rienced the presence and definite help
and comfort of the Lord. “If we
would think of the sufferings,’ wrote
Jan Claesson, “we would not over-
come, but we must look beyond these
things upon the eternal reward.”

A girl named Elizabeth, who suffer-
ed martyrdom in 1549 at Leeuwarden,
said under torture: “Oh, I cannot en-
dure it any longer.” The lords said:

“Confess, and we will relieve your
pain.” But she cried unto the Lord,
her God: “Help me, O Lord, thy poor

handmaiden! for Thou art a helper in
time of need.’ She continued to call
on the Lord, and He took away her
pain, so that she said to her tormen-
tors: “I feel’no longer any pain in my
flesh as I did before.” They obtained
not a word from her in the way of be-
traying her brethren. One of the mar-
tyrs at Basel in Switzerland said un-
der torture: “My body is in your pow-
er, you may brand, tear, and lacerate
it as you may choose. But my soul
overflows with joy through the inward
consolation with which the Lord fills
me.”

Invariably, when the martyrs were
taken to the torture chamber to be laid
on the rack, their greatest anxiety was
that they, in order to have the excru-
ciating pain alleviated, might yield to
the temptation to betray their breth-
ren. Therefore they sometimes ex-
pressed the desire that they might
know less about their brethren and
their whereabouts. Many of their let-
ters from the prisons contain warn-
ings against too great inquisitiveness

sure of * our

touching account of his torture:

as concerned the names and dwelling
places of those of like faith. The rec-
ords contain many testimonies that
under the most excruciating tortures

no name came over their lips. They
testified that the Lord kept their
mouths sealed, while the inquisitors

did all in their power “to drive out,”
as they said, “the dumb devil.”

- Jerome Segers gave’ the following
“They
tortured me severely, but the Lord
was stronger than all their torments;
He kept my lips. Eternal praise and
glory be to Him who does not for-
sake His own. They obtained no
names from me.... They threaten-
ed that they would torment me till the
next morning and stretch me a foot
longer than I was. Pouring water in-
to my mouth they filled my body full
of water. They had bound me with
four cords and racked me so that it
seemed to me as though my head and
legs were severed from the body. ‘But
they obtained nothing from me; spate
and glory be to the Lord.” ;

- There were, in passing, among the
martyrs evidently only very few who
were not able to write. Illiterates
were seldom found in Mennonite cir-
cles. The ability to read and study
God’s Word was under ordinary con-
ditions considered essential for a suc-
cessful Christian life. Illiterate con-
verts were speedily taught to read.
The friar Cornelius, a notorious in-
quisitor, at Bruges in Flanders, in a
disputation with Jacob Keersgieter,
said that those who formerly could
not tell an A from a B, suddenly could
read and write after they had been re-
baptized. It was evident, he said, that
the devil had a hand in this. “I can
well hear,’ said Keersgieter in reply
to this accusation, “that you do not
understand our way of doing, for the
grace which God grants our converts,
when we with all diligence teach them
to read, you ascribe to the devil.” A
number of the letters of the martyrs
refer to this fact that illiterate con-
verts were taught to read. For the
prisoners it was almost impossible to

obtain the light, paper and ink needed

for writing (pencils being unknown in ~

that age). One of these letters was
written with a little juice of “krake-
berries.”

Seottdsle vPa:

A PRACTICAL VISION

“A vision without a task makes a
visionary; a task without a_ vision
makes a drudge; a vision and a task
make a missionary.”
_ There are many young Christians
looking forward to service for the
Lord in a foreign mission field. Their
hearts are all aflutter whenever they
hear a missionary present the great
need of the millions of heathen in
Africa, India, China, or some other
distant land.

The desire is created in their hearts
to bring Christ to these dying men
and women. We do not want to stifle
this desire, but put it to a practical
use.

If one with this vision waits until
he gets to the foreign shores to win
~ souls for Christ, he will either lose
the vision before that time or else be
useless in God’s service when he does
reach the field.

We might consider the story of the
demoniac of Gadara as related in the
fifth chapter of Mark. This man was
.in awful bondage. He had yielded his
body to Satan and had become demon-
possessed, not by one demon, but by
many.

Our Lord set him free from this tor-
ment. The joy and gratitude of the
Gadarene knew no bounds. Immedi-
ately he prayed the Lord Jesus that
he might be with Him. “Howbeit,
Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto
him; go home to thy friends, and tell
them how great things the Lord hath
done for thee, and hath had compas-
sion on thee. And he departed, and
began to publish in Decapolis how
great things Jesus had done for him:
and all men did marvel” (Mark 5:19,
20).

Learn this lesson: “Go home first;

AND DIRECTORY =. 27

tell your loved ones, your friends. Aft-
er that you may go out into the world
and spread the good news that ‘the
Blood of Christ cleanseth us from all
sin.” ” |

D. L. Moody once. met a young fel-

. low on a train. This young man was

bubbling over with the prospect of go-
ing to Africa and winning the heathen
for Christ. Mr. Moody asked him a
very, pertinent question, “How many
souls. have you brought to. the Lord
here at home?” After a brief pause, he
answered truthfully, “I do not know of
one soul that I have won.” .. »

This word in due season, dropped
by God’s faithful servant, made the
young fellow think. As a consequence,
he got busy for Christ.

He was a soul-winner here at home,
and later God gave hima fruitful min-
istry in ‘Africa.

If you don’t win souls at home, you
won't win them anywhere. _

“Do not wait until some deed of great-
ness’ you may do,
Do not wait to shed your light afar.
To the many duties ever near you, now
be true,
Testify for Jesus where you are.”

—The Pilot.

“IF GOD BE FOR US”! .

“Tf God be for us, who can be
against us’? says the Apostle. It is
not only that the strength of God is
for us to meet every difficulty and foe,
but His Presence produces liberty and
confidence in our hearts, for we feel
that we have the knowledge of His
will, since He is with us. The sense
of His Presence gives joy, calmness,
and courage in presence of the enemy,
and in the difficulties of the way we
rest in Him. “Thou shalt hide them
in the secret of Thy Presence from
the pride of man: Thou shalt keep.
them secretly in a pavilion from the
strife of tongues.” The Presence of
God, a true and real thing for the
heart, keeps the conscience awake, andi
the heart filled with quiet confidence.
—Evan. Vis.

CALLED HOME

By Daniel Kauffman

In a church of 50,000 members it
is safe to estimate that from 500 to
1000 members are called each year to
answer the summons from on high.
This number should be kept in mind
as we figure on the net gain in mem-
bership. Among those called are men
and women, boys and girls, of all ages
—some prepared for the great change
and some unprepared. In this as in all
other things, “God is no respecter of
persons.”

Among those in our ranks who were
called from time to eternity during
the past year were a goodly number
of active workers and leaders who
were known beyond the borders of
their home community or district.
Space will not permit mention of all
these, but we shall write briefly of a
few of them.

Ebersole, Melinda (1860 - 1933).—
Died March 6. She was born in Lan-
caster Co., Pa., and in her childhood
years accompanied her parents to Sterl-
ing, Ill. In her early years she was
converted, united with the Mennonite

Church, and continued faithful to the
end. She was, for many years, a
faithful worker in the Mennonite Home
Mission in Chicago.

Coffman, Joseph W. (1857-1933) —
Died April 26. He was a life-long res-
ident of the Shenandoah Valley in
Virginia; a son of Bishop Samuel Coff-
man and brother of J. S. Coffman the
pioneer Mennonite evangelist. He
united with the Mennonite Church in
1879 and was ordained to the ministry
in 1907. He was active in the work of
the Lord, spending much of his time
in the West Virginia fieldsas well as
in his home district.. Every enterprise
in the Church that had the stamp of
loyalty on it had also the whole-heart-
ed support of Joseph W. Coffman.

Good, Solomon RR. (1871-1933).—
Died May 17. He was born near Dale
Enterprise, Va., the son of Christian
and Anna (Heatwole) Good. His fa-
ther was a bishop, and two of his bro-
thers—Samuel (deceased) and Aaron
C.—were and are in the ministry. From
the time of his conversion he took an
active interest in the work of the
Church, being a member of district
and General Mission Boards a num-

f

AND DIRECTORY 31

ber of years. As a young man he
moved -to Sterling, Ill, where he was
ordained a deacon in the Science Ridge
congregation in 1923.

Bowman, Moses C. (1855-1933) .-—
Died April 28. He was a faithful min-
ister of the Gospel for over 44 years,
serving the congregation at Mann-
heim, Ont. He was widely known,
took an active interest in the affairs
of the Church, and traveled extensive-
ly. His voice was heard in many
churches and conferences.

Lineweaver, William T. (1846-1933).
—Died May 26.. He was a pioneer
member of the Church in Keokuk Co.,
Towa. He and S. B. Wenger, who is
still an active member, began active
work, about forty years ago, to build
up a congregation in their own com-
munity. Liberty Church, near South
English, Iowa, is a result of their la-
bors. He served his congregation as
deacon for many years.

-Smeltzer, Samuel: (1857-1933).—Died
June 25. He was a lifelong resident
of Elkhart Co., Ind., and served the
Holdeman congregation near Waka-
rusa as deacon for over 35 years. His
counsels were much esteemed and his
services appreciated.

Westenberger, David (1857-1933) .—
Died July 7. He was for many years
a bishop in Lebanon. Co., -Pa., and
faithful in the performance of his du-
ties. He was seldom absent from con-
ferences in his district and took an

active interest in the affairs of the
Church.
Winey, Caleb (1849-1933). — Died

Aug. 30. He was born in Juniata Co.,
Pa., the eldest son of Bishop Samuel
Winey. In 1879 he moved with his
family to Osborne Co., Kans., where
he was_called to the ministry soon af-
terwards. Later he moved to Marion
Co., Kans., where he served faithfully
as one of the ministers in Catlin
Church near Peabody. His last years
‘were spent in a hospital ‘in Goessel,
Kans., being an invalid, but he bore
his afflictions patiently—his patience
in afflictions being one of his most
‘eloquent sermons.

Brubaker, Isaac H. (1858-1933).—
Died Sept. 2. He was a lifelong resi-
dent of Lancaster Co., Pa. He was a
member of Erisman’s congregation,
where he was ordained minister in
1907. Thirteen years later he was or-
dained a bishop in his bishop district,
which place he filled faithfully until
declining health interfered with his
active ministry. He was faithful, loy-
al, and active, and his voice in con-
ference was always listened to with
interest.

Kreider, Jonas M. (1857-1933). —
Died Oct. 22. He was born, lived, and
died in Medina Co., O., with the excep-
tion of a few years that he lived in
Texas. He united with the Mennonite
Church in 1892 and two years later
was ordained to the ministry. Bethel
Church, near Wadsworth, was his spe-
cial charge, but the whole Church held
his interests. Among his coworkers in
the ministry were N. A. Lind, now in
Oregon, and S. D. Rohrer, the present
minister in charge.

Lehman, John K. (1874-1933).—Died
Nov. 5. He was born near Wakarusa,
Ind., and died near Tofield, Alta. He
and his family were among the pioneer
members near Mayton, Alta., where
he was ordained to the ministry in
1906. Later he moved to Tofield, where
his labors were ended while he was
yet in the prime of life.

Moyer, Tobias E. (1863 - 1933).—
Died Nov. 10. He was born in the
Franconia District, Pa., where he lived
until he was called to assume active
charge of the Mennonite Old People’s
Home near Lancaster, Pa. .In. early
life he gave his heart to the Lord, u-
nited with the Mennonite Church, and
for 22 years prior to his death rendered
faithful service as steward in the Men-
nonite Home.

Bomberger, Tobias (1855-1933).—
Died Nov. 13. His life was spent in
Lebanon Co., Pa., where he served as
a deacon a number of years. He is
known for his active interest in the
affairs of the Church. His life was
brought to a close in an automobile
accident.

32 MENNONITE YEAR-BOOK |

Clemmer, Hiram D. (1857-1933).—
Died Nov. 29. A lifelong resident of

been ordained in 1914.

Rickert, Allen (1848-1933).— Died
Dec. 13. He was born in Bucks Co.,
Pa., but when an infant his parents
moved to Medina Co., Ohio. In his
early manhood he moved to Mahoning

he served faithfully until the infirmi-
ties of age reminded him, and others,
that he was ripening for the better
world. His interest in the affairs of
the Church was maintained to the last.
Stalter, Anna (1874-1933). — Died
Dec. 21. She was born and died in the
vicinity of Elida, Ohio. She is known
to many of our readers because of the
fact that she spent many years as a
missionary in India, where her labors
are still remembered with appreciation.
Blosser, Henry (1853-1933).—Died
Dec. 26. He was a lifelong resident of
Rockingham Co., Va., but widely
known to the brotherhood in other
districts. He was ordained a deacon
in 1899, in which capacity he served
faithfully until near the close of his life.
Scottdale, Pa.

THE SECRET OF A HAPPY DAY

Just to let thy Father do
What He will;

Just to know that He is true
And be still.

Just to follow, hour by hour,
As He leadeth,

Just to draw the moment’s power
As it needeth.

Just to take the loss or gain

' As He sends it;

Just to take the joy or pain
As He lends it;

Just to leave in His dear hand
Little things,

All we cannot understand,
All that stings.

This is all and yet the way
Marked by Him who loves thee best;

Secret of a happy day
Secret of His promised rest.

SUNDAY SCHOOL COM-
MITTEE

By A. J. Metzler

It is now nearly one hundred years
since the beginning of Sunday school
work in the Mennonite ‘Church of
America. During that time the Lord
has raised up many faithful leaders in
the work and has been pleased to bless
it as a mighty agency in the teaching
of His Word. It has also been greatly
used of God as an evangelizing agen-
cy, as an institution for the training of
Christian workers, and as a means of
opening new fields of Christian serv-
ice.

As a result of conviction and after
a number of years of careful, prayerful
planning the General Sunday School
Committee was brought into existence
eighteen years ago. The purpose of
this new organization was to have a
group of faithful, able, and experienced
brethren constantly studying better
ways and means to more effective Bi-
ble teaching, and to be ready to advise
and direct the schools in attaining that
end. This committee has done much
faithful work along these lines during
the past years, although, due to change
of personnel and other conditions, it
has sometimes been somewhat hin-
dered in doing its best.

During recent years new opportuni-
ties for service have presented them:
selves to our committee. Although the
Sunday school still remains the
Church’s greatest single agency for
the systematic teaching of the Word,
yet there are other avenues for Bible
teaching being developed which re- .
quire much careful study, planning, and
supervision.

The present and future sphere of ac-
tivity and work, for which the General
Sunday School Committee is respon-
sible, might be clearly and definitely
defined as follows: While the Mennon-
ite Board of Education is responsible
for the Church’s Christian educational

’ a ANE DIRECT OR Vas. 33

work as carried on at her centralized
church schools, the General Sunday
School Committee is responsible for
the Christian educational work of the
Church in its various forms as carried
on in the local congregations through-
out- the Church. This clearly defines
our field of work, and it is a great field.

We appreciate the good work which
has been done by the Church in pro-
viding definite Bible teaching for young
and old in each congregation. But
when we carefully study the Word to
see God’s plan for preaching to the
world and for teaching the Church,
and especially the children, we are
made to realize that we have a long
way to go until we come near to what
might be done. This conviction cf
what might be and should be done is
deepened when we realize that God
has so constituted the child that its
future for time and eternity depends
largely upon its training in the Scrip-
tures in early and tender years.

Up until a generation or two ago
the young people between the ages of
twelve and twenty-two years were giv-
en practically no place in the Church.
The past generation has made the
proper provision for them. There is
splendid and Scriptural means provid-
ed for their evangelism, instruction,
training, and service. Of course there
is room for improvement. :

In like manner we firmly believe tha
the Church’s present and great task is
to make the proper Scriptural provi-
sion for sufficient and effective Bible
teaching for our youth below the age
of twelve, as well as above -that age.
Again we want to acknowledge the
good work already done. But in view
of what: should be done, in view of
what God expects us to do, in view
of what we must do, our past efforts
are only the beginning of thorough,
definite, and systematic Bible teaching
for our girls and boys in every con-
gregation.

In the studying, planning, promot-
ing, and supervising of this division of
the Lord’s work lies the colossal task
of the General Sunday School Com-

mittee. We keenly realize that it is
not only a great but a sacred task. It
is. not only for time but for eternity.
It is not man’s work, but God’s. Di-
vine wisdom and strength are need-
ed, and only with the close coopera-
tion of home, other phases of church
work, and the church in general, can
we have the assurance of God’s bless-
ings upon the work.

As previously mentioned the Sun-
day school is the Church’s present most
effective agency for the systematic
teaching of the Word. We believe that
it will be such for some time to come.
And especially do we believe that it
will continue to hold the central place
in our Christian educational program
in the local congregations, if the prop-
er pains are taken to improve its ef-
ficiency and usefulness. :

Ways in which the Sunday school
will need constant improvement are
as follows: Better administration, a
stronger teaching force, improved cur-
riculum, better adapted buildings and
equipment, and a closer cooperation of
the home and all church workers, local
and in general. To this end our com-
mittee, through its officers and author-
ized subcommittees, is working.

Another valuable means of Bible in-
struction which has come into promi-
nence during the past decade is the

Summer Bible School.. The Lord is al-

so blessing this work. A properly con-
ducted Summer Bible School gives a
congregation the opportunity of offer-
ing their girls and boys as much more
Bible instruction as they are now re-
ceiving in the Sunday school. This
work is gaining. During the past year
one conference had Summer Bible
Schools in about half of their Sunday
schools. The same district has plans
for additional schools during the com-
ing year, which will mean the con-
ducting of Summer Bible Schools in
about two-thirds of their Sunday
schools. What is being done in this
rural district can be done in most sec-
tions.

Here, too, there are many problems.
Much time and energy have been spent

34 MENNONITE YEAR-BOOK

in this field during the past number of
years. Its chief work has been the
preparing of a course of study. This
is being done through the Summer
Bible School Committee and associated
assistants, under the direction of the
General Sunday School Committee. It
is planned to have the entire course in
ten grades in that number of manuals
ready for distribution by the coming
spring. This is truly one of the greatest

single steps in Christian educational

work which the Mennonite Church has
undertaken.

Another important phase of our com-
mittee’s work which has received new
impetus recently is the Teacher Train-
ing program. As previously reported in
our church papers, a new course was
approved at the last General Confer-
ence. This is receiving a hearty recep-
tion and meeting a real need through-
out the Church. The continued promo-
tion and direction of this work will
constitute an important part of the
committee’s interests and activity.

The General Sunday School Com-
mittee has always given much atten-
tion to promoting the mission inter-
ests of the Church. It has encouraged
and aided in the providing and direct-

ing of mission study courses and class-
es. In codperation with the Mission
Board we have sponsored the quarter
investments and saving boxes among
the Sunday school girls and boys. This
work has done more than provide
thousands of dollars for orphans and
other needy children at home and a-
broad. It has been a means of de-
veloping real missionary interest and
conviction.

We have endeavored to outline a few
of the things which engage the inter-
ests of the Committee for the present.
It is the Lord’s work. We are servants
of God and of the Church. We desire
your prayers. We invite your con-
structive criticisms and suggestions.
May we work and pray unitedly in
this important phase of the Lord’s
work. »

DOCTRINES OF THE BIBLE

A comprehensive book, treating on all
the major doctrines of the Bible. It is ana-
lytical in its treatment of subjects, yet as a
whole is an interesting and readable book
for all classes of people. Ministers, students,
Christian workers, and those who enjoy
reading for devotional purposes will find
something here that will appeal to them. It
‘will serve as a ready reference book in the
Christian home. |

The book is divided into eight parts:
God; Man; God and Man; Realms of Dark-
ness; God’s Plan of Salvation; The Church;

Christian Life; The Future. The chapters
are carefully subdivided and outlined. It
gives a brief discussion of Scripture teach-
ings as set.forth in God’s Word.

This book should be in every Mennonite home. One of our min-
isters in recommending it to his congregation held up a copy and said,
“This is the strongest book of our faith that I ever read.” Send us
your order for a copy at once before you neglect it, or give your order
to your local representative.

The book contains 640 pages, size 6x8%% inches, substantially
bound in dark blue cloth with gold lettering. Each, postpaid......$ 2.00

MENNONITE HISTORICAL REFERENCE WORKS

CENTENNIAL HISTORY Oe Gi Nt eN Ne Ge
OF [TLULNO1S :\1329,1929

By Harry F. WEBER

In a volume of almost 700 pages, the author traces in detail the history
of the Mennonites of Illinois from the very first settlement in 1829, now more
than a hundred years ago, down to the present time. He has spared no pains in
preparing an accurate survey of the early prairie settlements, and traces the
growth of these early settlements into the large communities with hundreds
of members supporting active church organizations and charitable institutions.
The story includes interesting accounts of pioneer life, together with a descrip-
tion of the growth of the pioneer religious life and organization of the newly
arrived Mennonite immigrants from Alsace and South Germany into religious
organizations with Sunday Schools, mission enterprises, young people’s ac-
tivities, and the like.

This volume is exhaustive, not only in covering all the nine branches within
the state, but also in giving a detailed account of every congregation and in-
stitution in the various branches. The volume is encyclopedic in character, and
will without doubt remain the standard work in its field. Its usefulness is much
increased by maps, illustrations, statistical tables, a biographical appendix, and
several extensive indices.

MENNONITES OF “LANCASTER “CONFERENCE

By MartTIn G. WEAVER

The author has spared no time or expense in gathering the historical mat-
ter necessary for a publication of this kind. The original purpose of this work,
as related by the author, was to make a record and a comparison of the growth
or decline of the many Mennonite Congregations in Lancaster County, and to
compile a complete list of all bishops, ministers, and deacons with the dates
and terms of service, as well as to record the location of the early meetinghouses
and the dates of their erection, ending with the list of the present congregations,
Sunday schools, and other departments in the service of God, as conducted by
the church. This purpose has been accomplished with added historical matter
of general interest.

The material is arranged by Bishop Districts and can readily be understood
by all. The enlarged chapter on Sunday Schools, Missions and Charitable In-
stitutions in the Conference district is of more than passing interest.

A chapter is devoted to the work of the Lancaster Conference. This is of
vital importance and will be of interest to the entire Mennonite church body.
Other Mennonite bodies located within the borders of the Lancaster Conference
District are included in the history in a brief way. A chapter is devoted to the
list of Church leaders in other Mennonite conferences who came originally
from Lancaster Conference. Practically all the leading conferences in the
United States and Canada have been affected by this emigration in earlier years.

A complete record is given of ordinations of bishops, ministers, and deacons
with dates of death and ages within the Lancaster Conference District.

The book contains about 550 pages including 47 illustrations. Some of the
early landmarks as well as a number of the present meetinghouses are shown
by the illustrations. Size of pages 534 by 8% inches. Bound in cloth with side
and back stamps in gold.

“It presents a wonderful record of
